High-Tech High

The Party
The luxury of science was front and center when Riviera celebrated eight Qualcomm innovators.

The Players
The high-tech heroes couldn’t hide from their adoring fans: Their likenesses emblazoned on the party’s custom wine labels made anonymity impossible. But the great eight gamely worked the crowd gathered at the lavish Rancho Santa Fe private residence. Cocktails and a tasty spread by Whisknladle, including oysters and charcuterie platters, also helped keep things buzzy.
